Christmas Season

Leading up to Christmas, we visited Santa, saw Christmas lights, visited Temple Square, kissed under the mistletoe, decorated our tree and house, performed in a preschool program and all sorts of other fun Christmas related activities. Here are some photos of a few of those!

Rilo in her role as Mrs. Claus for preschool. I've never seen her so serious. Her singing was loud and proud!

Our neighborhood puts on the most amazing reenactment of the Christmas story. It started with a full market with animals and food and peddlers. Then we followed Joseph and Mary on a donkey to a small stable. An angel appeared (shown below) to the shepherds. We all sang Silent Night, and you better believe I got too choked up to finish. It was beautiful and was the perfect way to get into the true Spirit of Christmas.
